Oh, I love the cards. Ham needs a ramp. My daughter made one for her weenie. Sister had her back operated on and was supposed to not move around. It was impossible. I had to literally sit with her with a leash on her so she wouldn't jump off the couch. Hope the sweet boy is feeling better soon. Love the picture of Ham watching the sunset. And after eating two cookies and some cherry tomatoes for dinner, that pork dinner looks very good.

We had special stairs made but vet does not even want ramp right now.Daughter dachshund had 3 operations. They kept him in the crate most of the time till he could move around. He was beaten and had back problems when they adopted him. They never let him jump up or down and were so good to him. I think he had a good life with them.

I loved the cute picture of the Hamish and Oliver. I hope the pain pills will give the Hamish relief.

We have started shopping for steps so Fuzzy can get up to his favorite recliner easier. He still jumps up onto it, but most times it is a big drama. He tries to jump up, then loses confidence, puts front feet back on the ground, whines a little, spins around walks up and does it again. He will keep trying again and again until I make him stop or he manages to make the jump. Poor little thing. I am always happy to get up and put him on his chair, but as soon as I put him up there and turn to sit back down in my chair, he jumps down off of the chair where I just picked him up and put him. He is 12 years old now. Sometimes he seems as frustrated about the physical limitations that arthritis puts on some of us (people and dogs) as we age as I am.

I hope the Hamish will be back playing with his toys and javelina viewing very soon.

I am an artist who lives in the Sonora Desert with Two Little Square Black Dogs. Even though Watson has left, in my heart he is still here with us. So now only thehamish is left to uphold The Square Dog tradition.
